Data-based Nonlinear Modeling of Biomedical Systems

This book deals with the PDM-based modeling approach and how it will improve diagnostic procedures. Throughout the book, the author presents and applies this modeling approach on a wide range of medical issues. This approach shows how mathematical models can be critically important in the neurophysiological and biological fields. The book also compares this approach to existing alternative approaches.
